[quote=Anonymous]I'm dreading the fall a bit, although its my favorite season. Between all the kids birthday parties, Halloween, Thanksgiving, and winter holidays, I'm worried about gaining weight again this year. Any concrete suggestions or strategies for avoiding seasonal pitfalls?  I know not to buy the Halloween candy until the morning of Halloween (!), but otherwise I need help!

How do I avoid mindlessly snacking at all the kids parties, some of which are kind of boring and I find myself grazing without thinking much about it?  Or avoid having a slice of the pizza after being there for 1.5 hours and feeling a little hungry?

How do I avoid the strong lure of the birthday cake (I am a huge sucker for store-bought cakes from Giant, etc.!)??  Am I better off having a tiny piece to slightly satisfy my craving or better off with a bright-line rule of no cake and then just dealing with the growing mental obsession about it?  And when I do skip a piece for myself, how then to stop finishing the leftover cake from DC's plate?!

How do I avoid "sharing" my kid's Halloween loot?  (As you've probably figured, I have a big sweet tooth!)

Any tips for Thanksgiving and other holidays as far as managing food intake and choices?

Thanks for any help![/quote]
